// First day of physics, about to go through role call:
Mr. Forbes: I'm really bad with remembering names. Once, on a third date, when she went to the bathroom, I had to go through her purse and wallet to look at her driver's license. You can only get so far with "hey babe!" and "darling"... -

Forbes: So, in this web of wires, all the currents at this end and the other end add to the same thing because of conservation of charge. Unless there's something adding charges, or little trolls taking them away.
James: It's climbin' in your circuits, it's snatchin' your charges up... -

// Mr. Forbes takes out a Newton's Cradle from Spencer's
Mr. Forbes: I've noticed that Spencer's sells three kinds of products: lava lamps, sex jokes, and science toys. So that means their target demographic is perverted, ex-hippie physics teachers.
Mr. Forbes: I don't know where they'll find any of those. -

// Mr. Forbes makes a math error while discussing derivatives
Class: Oh! Oh! You didn't divide by dt!
Forbes: Ok, ok! You know, when I was teaching at a lower level high school, I used to offer students 1 bonus point for typos, 2 points for a math error, and 5 points for a conceptual error. Naturally, this had their eyes glued to the board the whole class.
Class: *jaws hit the floor in disbelief*
Forbes: Of course, I can't give this opportunity to you guys, because you'd have 4 billion points by the end of the first quarter.
// 2 minutes later
Student: You forgot to distribute delta x.
Forbes: Dammit! -

// During the physics wave labs, it is near the end of an afterschool work session.
Mr. Rose: Come on, guys, you have 5 minutes left. If everyone isn't out of here by 6:00, I'll charge 5 bucks per head.
// The students do not listen and continue working.
Mr. Forbes: Make that five POINTS per head.
// Everyone gasps and immediately scrambles to get out -

// Doing wave labs in physics; A, B, and C are students.
Mr. Forbes: Well, I know you've been having trouble getting a good refraction pattern on Lab 4, so I want to show you guys a really good one. Come and see [A,B, and C]'s wave tank!
*everyone crowds around*
Mr. Forbes: Mr. Rose! Come in and see this!
*Mr. Rose comes in*
A: Can we leave this up all week?
B: Yeah, this is the best we've done in physics all year!
C: I should have brought my camera.
Forbes: Tell you what...we can keep it up and take readings for 5 days--
Rose: --once an hour--
Forbes: --and track the index of refraction--
Rose: --and figure out a formula--
Forbes & Rose together: --to correlate index of refraction to evaporation rate!!
Class: *silence*
A: Eeeeew...
B: o_0
C: Physics teachers... *rolls eyes*
